WestJet reaches a tentative agreement with its flight attendants to end a strike that disrupts travel across Canada. Multiple outlets report that the tentative deal is reached early Monday morning, bringing an end to the work stoppage that began the previous day. The strike leads to hundreds of flight cancellations and leaves thousands of passengers stranded, according to reports. The agreement is described as tentative, indicating it still requires further steps before it takes full effect, though the sources do not detail the specific next phase. The reports characterize the development as a resolution effort to restore normal operations after a short but significant disruption to the airline’s schedule. The strike involves WestJet’s flight attendants, and the negotiated settlement is aimed at addressing the parties’ concerns that prompted the strike. As the tentative agreement is reached, the expectation is that cancellations and travel disruptions will ease as flights resume, subject to the terms and implementation timeline of the deal.
